Welcome Carina Press author, Lynsey James...

Like most authors,
I love imagining who would play my characters if my books were ever made into
films! So without further ado, here is my dream cast for The Sunflower Cottage Breakfast Club.

Cara Theobold as Emily Reed

Whilst I was
writing Sunflower Cottage, I watched
Cara in The Syndicate and Harry Price Ghost Hunter. She’s fab and
I think she’d be great as uptight business exec Emily!

Tyler Blackburn as Noah Hartley

My
favourite of all the Pretty Little Liars
boys! I can just imagine Tyler as the sexy, brooding Noah who loves Sunflower
Cottage so much. Plus, he’s not bad looking either, is he?

Sarah George as Lucy
Harper

You
might remember Lucy from The Broken Hearts
Book Club. In The Sunflower Cottage
Breakfast Club, she strikes up a friendship with Emily, and Sarah has
always been my first pick to play lovely Lucy.

Sam Claflin as Jake
Hartley

Lucy’s
not the only character from The Broken
Hearts Book Club to pop up in Sunflower
Cottage- Jake does too! He’s hiding a secret this time round though… Sam is
the perfect choice for the cheeky landlord of The Purple Partridge!

Julie Walters as Rose
White

I can’t imagine
anyone else playing the kindly owner of Sunflower Cottage better than my
favourite actress Julie Walters. I love her in everything she’s in and I can
just see her bossing Noah around whilst running the B&B!

Blurb: The perfect summer romance for a sunny
afternoon and a picnic in the park

Emily Reed is having a bad day. Devastated at losing her
hard-earned promotion to the ditz who’s sleeping with the boss, her mother
drops a devastating bombshell—the dad she’s known and loved for twenty-five
years isn’t her biological father.

Now Emily needs answers and a month in Luna Bay should give
her the time she needs to find her father, and land the difficult client at the
Sunflower Cottage B&B which should put her back in the running for her
coveted promotion.

Setting up the Sunflower Cottage breakfast club should be a
great way to meet the locals and maybe even find out who her father is! The
only problem is that brooding and insanely gorgeous, Noah, is determined to
make Emily’s stay perfectly uncomfortable.

Finding out the truth was never going to be simple, but she
never thought her heart would get in the way…

Lynsey James was
born in Fife in 1991 and has been telling people how to spell her name ever
since. She's an incurable bookworm who loves nothing more than getting lost in
a good story with memorable characters. She started writing when she was really
young and credits her lovely Grandad- and possibly a bump on the head from a Mr
Frosty machine- with her love of telling stories. She used to write her own
episodes of Friends and act them out in front of her family (in fact she's sure
she put Ross and Rachel together first!)

A careers adviser at school once told Lynsey writing wasn’t a “good option” and
for a few years, she believed her. She tried a little bit of everything,
including make-up artistry, teaching and doing admin for a chocolate fountain
company. The free chocolate was brilliant. When Lynsey left my job a couple of
years ago, she started writing full-time while she looked for another one. As
soon as she started working on her story, Lynsey fell in love and decided to
finally pursue her dream. She haven’t looked back since.

When Lynsey's not writing, eating cake or drinking tea, she's daydreaming about
the day Dylan O’Brien FINALLY realises they're meant to be together. It’ll
happen one day…
